- Post-Translational Modifications (PTMs):
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are covalent modifications that occur after a protein has been synthesized, and they play a crucial role in regulating various aspects of protein function, localization, and activity. There are numerous types of PTMs, and proteins can undergo multiple modifications simultaneously. Here are some common post-translational modifications of proteins:
1. Phosphorylation:
Process: Addition of a phosphate group to serine, threonine, or tyrosine residues.
Function: Regulates protein activity, cellular signaling, and enzyme function.
2. Glycosylation:
Process: Addition of sugar moieties (oligosaccharides) to asparagine (N-linked) or serine/threonine (O-linked) residues.
Function: Influences protein folding, stability, and recognition. Important for cell adhesion and signaling.
3. Acetylation:
Process: Addition of an acetyl group to lysine residues.
Function: Regulates chromatin structure, gene expression, and protein stability.
4. Methylation:
Process: Addition of a methyl group to lysine or arginine residues.
Function: Involved in gene expression, histone modification, and protein-protein interactions.
5. Ubiquitination:
Process: Attachment of ubiquitin molecules to lysine residues.
Function: Marks proteins for degradation by the proteasome, regulates protein levels, and controls various cellular processes.
6. Sumoylation:
Process: Attachment of small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) proteins to lysine residues.
Function: Modulates protein localization, stability, and interactions. Often involved in nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling.
7. Oxidation:
Process: Addition of oxygen to methionine, cysteine, or tryptophan residues.
Function: Can alter protein conformation, activity, and stability. Involved in redox signaling.
8. Proteolytic Cleavage:
Process: Removal of specific peptide segments from a protein.
Function: Activates or inactivates proteins, as seen in the activation of digestive enzymes or blood clotting factors.
9. Prenylation:
Process: Addition of lipid groups (farnesyl or geranylgeranyl) to cysteine residues.
Function: Facilitates protein membrane association and cellular localization.
10. ADP-Ribosylation:
Process: Addition of ADP-ribose moieties to specific amino acids.
Function: Involved in DNA repair, signaling, and regulation of various cellular processes.
These modifications often work in concert, creating a complex regulatory network that finely tunes cellular activities. Dysregulation of post-translational modifications is associated with various diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and metabolic diseases.

This video is amazing!
Thanks for this vedio sir! Kindly make a complete vedio lecture on Eastern blotting as soon as possible.
Thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊
informative and crisp...thank you, love from India
Please ya nicha captions hata deya kra screen shot nhi lya jata
Thanks alot. Can you please teach the insilico approaches for post translational modification determination
sure
